<p>Muah right back atcha me lassie!</p>
<p> By the "little guy" in my fridge I was referring to the post-modern folk-fiction character "Yehudi" (the little guy in the fridge who turns off the light when you close the door). He takes his name after Yehudi Menhuin, the American born Russian Jewish violinist whose works have graced several nations since his birth in 1916 until his death in 1999. (He has been a citizen of the U.S., England and Switzerland).</p>

<p> As a radio talk show guest he was widely sought after and it became a common practice to anounce him as an upcoming guest, just to get folks to tune in to the show-however Menhuin, having not even been invited (or having been invited and declined) never showed up. Thus, it kind of became a running joke to refer to anyone or anything that was mysteriously absent (like the elf in the fridge) as "Yehudi".</p>
<p>And btw-sometimes I DO see little elves and faeries everywhere-lucky me! It's my reality, I'll invite who I want ta!</p> p.s. why don't you join compa…tag:www.atheistnexus.org,2011-09-23:2182797:Comment:16676472011-09-23T19:02:35.458Zalexa penznerhttp://www.atheistnexus.org/profile/alexapenn

Yes, actually when I belonged to the Temple of Set, we used the CE/BCE to refer to dates in "profane" (secular or non-temple) usage and AEon of Set date (starting with 1966 as the "Year I AE. S." which originally read A.S. or "Anno Satani" by the old Church of Satan reckoning).

<p> I'll second that! I'll gladly put aside my cultural amorphousness for awhile and try to experience the customs of others. I could probably learn a thing or two from that.</p>
<p> I think the human genetic sequence has an amazing story to tell as it has travelled the world and experienced so much and lives in every one of us. "Ethnicity" by whatever named it's called is just a way of expressing the little stops along the way of the greater journey of our species.</p>

I think we should ALL be Jewish, and then we can all go out and celebrate Tu B'shvat, the New Year of the Trees. That should keep everyone happy, except for those that don't know what a tree is. Just as good as celebrating St. Patrick's Day or Cinco de Mayo, when we're all Irish or Mexican!!! :-)
